Hi @Srinivas1254 ,

You can try the below approach,

Scheduler:

Scheduler > Advance tab > Initialization script:

vars.day = formatDate(new Date(), "%2A");

ParthaSarathy_0-1668603486492.png

Test Activity:

Create 2 conditions,

//Condition1: (Label: Saturday)
vars.day == 'Sat'

//Condition2: (Label: Sunday)
vars.day == 'Sun'

//Default connection Label as 'Weekdays'

 

Wait Activity:

Define duration of 2d for Saturday and 1d for Sunday

So If 5th of the Month is Saturday, It will wait for 2 days and trigger the remaining flow on Monday, and same for Sunday (get triggered after 24hrs).

And if 5th of the month falls on rest of the weekdays (Mon-Fri), Workflow will trigger on the same day.

Hi @Srinivas1254 

The @ParthaSarathy solution is smart, explanations are very complete, I suggest you to use it.

In another hand, I made an other solution, but more technical and less understandable. Just to have a link somewhere I put it here (it's a package) :
